Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 994 Meeting Point

The next day, Lin Feng followed four people and began to march towards Quzhou Prefecture.

They were going to reunite with other separate teams and continue their operation to attack and kill the pirates.

Lin Feng rode on the same horse with a man in black, whose name was Ji Xueliang and he was a warrior of the Seven Heroes of the Yan Clan.

The Seven Heroes of the Yan Clan is the name of an organization in this area. The leaders of this organization are seven people with the surname Yan, and they have hundreds of soldiers under them.

Four riders and five people headed west and arrived at a town called Gangbu.

Gangbu Town is the agreed gathering place of the seven heroes of the Yan family. No matter where they are scattered, this is always one of their gathering places.

This town is deserted and is a ghost town.

The bluestone streets were covered with green grass, scattered broken doors and windows, and collapsed stone walls, all telling of the war that had happened here.

The four men were a mile away, hiding behind a bush. Ji Xueliang had already dismounted and was walking quickly into the town.

He first needed to make sure there was no ambush in the town.

Ji Xueliang was born with a pair of long legs and could run very fast without making any noise, making him the best candidate for this job.

Yan Xiaoding and Lin Feng huddled together, his eyes fixed on the town in the distance, while he was talking softly to Lin Feng.

"Hey, Shu Fengting, think about what delicious food you're going to make for us today. Once we get into town, we should start cooking."

Lin Feng turned his head and glanced at her.

This woman was pretty and seemed to have good skills, but her mind was full of food. All she did every day was kill pirates and look for good food.

Of course, if Yan Xiaoding didn't like to eat, he wouldn't have tried so hard to get Lin Feng to join the Yan's Seven Heroes organization and let him be a chef.

Normally, in such a war-torn period, the cook should be the person the organization trusts the most. If a person of unknown origin is hired as a cook, once he is poisoned, the entire organization will be wiped out.

I don’t know what this big-breasted and brainless Yan Xiaoding was thinking. She actually let Lin Feng be the cook, just because the barbecue smelled delicious. Also, Lin Feng knew Duan Yiwei and was mistaken for being his colleague.

In any case, it can be seen from this that the organization of the Seven Heroes of the Yan Family has indeed developed from the original rangers to the current large-scale anti-pirate organization. Its organizational form is not rigorous enough and its management is even looser.

Lin Feng smiled bitterly and replied, "Miss, how can I cook if I don't have any ingredients?"

Yan Xiaoding waved his hand: "Don't worry, we'll find it when we get into town."

As this place gets further away from the saline-alkali land, weeds and shrubs grow more and more, and there are more wild animals.

However, Lin Feng cannot hunt at will. As a cook, he cannot have other skills.

A little over a quarter of an hour later, Ji Xueliang ran back and waved for them to enter the town, indicating that there was no danger in the town.

The four men then took their horses and set off towards the town.

Yan Xiaoding and his companions were obviously not coming to this town for the first time. They were very familiar with the route and after turning left and right, they came to a relatively tidy courtyard.

After tying up the horses, he began to fetch water from the well to wash.

In a house without a roof, Yan Xiaoding pointed to an earthen stove.

"Shu Fengting, there's a stove here. I'll make you a pot later. I'll see what other ingredients are available. Go get some firewood."

Lin Feng nodded, turned and walked out of the yard.

When he arrived, he saw the leaning doors and windows, collapsed beams and purlins, broken furniture, and materials that could be used to start a fire everywhere.

Yan Xiaobing frowned when he saw Lin Feng coming in with a pile of wood.

"You can't light a fire here. If people see the smoke, it will reveal your target."

Lin Feng was stunned: "How can we cook without a fire?"

Ji Xueliang had just lifted a bucket of water from the well. When he heard Lin Feng's words, he immediately smiled.

"Here, drink water from the well and eat some dry food."

Lin Feng certainly understood this approach. Indeed, the green smoke would expose the target, which would be very disadvantageous to the Seven Heroes of the Yan family who were always engaged in guerrilla warfare.

There was no way. He hadn't figured out how to deal with the green smoke produced by the burning wood so as not to attract the attention of people far away.

"It doesn't seem to make much sense for you to ask me to be your cook."

Lin Feng didn't see Yan Xiaoding, and knew that she had gone to look for the iron pot, so he threw the wood into the yard, relaxed his shoulders, and sat down aside.

Ji Xueliang came up to him at this time.

"Don't worry, once we get to the county town, we can make a fire and cook without worrying about exposing our target."

"Instead of hiding here and there, you might as well join the Zhenxi Army, where you can fight pirates in an open and honest battle."

"The Zhenxi Army has just begun to enter the southern border of Dazong. We have been here all the time, dealing with the pirates. We have backers behind us."

Ji Xueliang looked proud.

Lin Feng looked at him curiously: "Backer? Who?"

"Forget it, you'll know when the time comes. Have a good rest. If we can't wait for other teams, we still have to go west."

After saying that, he handed Lin Feng a water bag and went to get water to feed the horse.

Lin Feng took a sip of water. The well water was very cold, but much sweeter than the water in the village.

The three of them shared some dry food with him, took out a piece of hard bread from the package, put it to their mouths, bit off a piece, and chewed it slowly.

Before he could swallow the dry food, Yan Xiaoding walked in with a broken black iron pot in his hand.

"Hey, look what I found, hey, something good."

Everyone saw her face flushed with excitement, as if she had found something delicious.

Yan Xiaoding came to the kitchen and found that Lin Feng had not lit a fire. He immediately frowned and scolded him.

"Shu Fengting, I asked you to light a fire and cook, what have you been doing?"

Lin Feng could only shake his head at her.

Yan Xiaobing waved his hand: "Xiao Ding, we can't light a fire here. Let's talk about it after we get to Long County."

"Why can't I cook? I've looked around, there's a lot of space around, and there's no one there."

"We have to avoid the pirates' pursuit. How can we expose our tracks so easily?"

"Is it exposed just by cooking?"

"Can you please stop making a fuss?"

Yan Xiaobing was helpless. This Yan Xiaoding had been spoiled by his fellow apprentices and had become unruly.

"I just wanted to have a hot meal, why is this considered a commotion?"

"No fireworks here..."

"There's no one around, why don't you..."

Before Yan Xiaoding could finish his words, he heard someone shouting.

"There's some movement in the north of town, come up and take a look."

This is another team member, who climbed to the top of a roof with exposed beams and looked at the movements around him.

Yan Xiaobing quickly climbed onto the roof and looked carefully to the north.

There was indeed a group of knights galloping towards this town.

The distance was too far to see whose team it was.

After waiting for a while, when the group of knights came closer, he could see clearly that they were not the team of the Seven Heroes of the Yan Clan.

In this area, if they are not our own people, there will only be pirates left, and no other teams will appear.

"Let's all find a place to hide. It's too late to run now."

Yan Xiaobing was very calm. It seemed that this was not the first time he had encountered such a situation.
